The single ticks in your array() variable is causing the problem.

plus, since you are using single quotes for the entire string, the
variable isn't going to be interpreted as a variable.  It will simply
print the string $row['name']

Also, this is the wrong way to use printf().  Please go read the manual
page for this function.

Try:

printf(
	'<a href="view.php?name=%s"><b>%s</b><br />%s<br /><br /></a>',
	$row['name'],
	$row['name'],
	$row['address']
);

This is the correct way to use printf()
